I’m always flattered when a teacher uses my book in a discussion on memoir or workshop on telling one’s own story. And I was thrilled to be back in the UCLA classroom of the great writer and brilliant teacher Alison Singh Gee. If you haven’t read her wonderful book, “Where The Peacocks Sing” you should. Just click on the Amazon link to the right and order it for your Kindle or have a copy delivered! And you can also check out her author page at MacMillan: Alison Singh Gee
The program schedule is out for the 2013 West Hollywood Book Fair on Sunday, September 29th in West Hollywood Park.
I’ll be appearing on a terrific panel called “MEMOIR: FAMILY TIES” at the Behind the Screens Stage at 1:30PM.
The panel will be moderated by Rachel Resnick great writer and author of, among others, LOVE JUNKIE. CHANEL BONFIRE and I will be sharing the stage with Scott C. Johnson (THE WOLF AND THE WATCHMAN), Linda Daly (THE LAST PILGRIMAGE) and James Brown (THE LOS ANGELES DIARIES).
I hope to see you there!
